The question, in short

On a grid with x from 0 to 6 and y from 0 to 6, identify and label the region R satisfying 1 ≤ x ≤ 5, 0 ≤ y ≤ 4 and y ≥ 3 − x.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Solution · 4 marks

  1. 1Draw the vertical lines x = 1 and x = 5
  2. 2Draw the horizontal line y = 4 (y = 0 is the x-axis)
  3. 3Draw y = 3 − x through (0, 3) and (3, 0)
  4. 4R is the region between x = 1 and x = 5, below y = 4, above the x-axis and above y = 3 − x: label it R

AnswerLines x = 1, x = 5, y = 4 and y = 3 − x drawn; region R (1 ≤ x ≤ 5, 0 ≤ y ≤ 4, above y = 3 − x) labelled R
